    Requirements for the RMA Backup and RMA Restore to work correctly:

    • For the Security Gateway to connect to its Management Server, on the Security Gateway you must use the interface configured as the Management Interface in Gaia OS.

    • The communication between the Security Gateway and the Management Server must rely on the Security Gateway's default gateway and not on static routes.

  • Before you can install a package with CDT on a Security Gateway / Cluster Member, you must:

    1. Configure the Security Gateway / Cluster Member with the Gaia First Time Configuration Wizard.

      Note - This requirement does not apply to the RMA Restore mode.

    2. Configure the Secure Internal Communication (SIC) in SmartConsole with the Security Gateway / Cluster Member.

      Note - This requirement does not apply to the RMA Restore mode.

    3. Install the Access Control policy at least one time on the Security Gateway / Cluster Member.

      Note - This requirement does not apply to the RMA Restore mode.
